Water Stress-Driven Changes in Bacterial Cell Surface Properties.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Increased drought intensity and frequency exposes soil bacteria to prolonged water stress. While numerous studies reported on behavioral and physiological mechanisms of bacterial adaptation to water stress, changes in bacterial cell surface properties during adaptation are not well researched. We studied adaptive changes in cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) after exposure to osmotic (NaCl) and matric stress (polyethylene glycol 8000 [PEG 8000]) for six typical soil bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Novosphingobium aromaticivorans, Rhodococcus erythropolis, and Mycobacterium pallens) covering a wide range of cell surface properties. Additional physicochemical parameters (surface chemical composition, surface charge, cell size and stiffness) of B. subtilis and P. fluorescens were analyzed to understand their possible contribution to CSH development. Changes in CSH caused by osmotic and matric stress depend on strain and stress type. CSH of B. subtilis and P. fluorescens increased with stress intensity, R. erythropolis and
